Most of the YouTube channels I subscribe to, categorized. This list is now automated! You can learn how it's implemented and use the code yourself if you use FreeTube and have an Eleventy site.

Recent updates reflect some changes in my obsessions. I'm pretty much always interested in video games, but other interests like tabletop games, anime, cycling, etc are very cyclical for me. This update reflects lost enthusiasm for cycling after I failed miserably to own an ebike in an apartment with stairs and with tabletop RPGs after I just burned out on them for the time being.

I took a long, hard look at some of my other subscriptions and pruned many of the aspirational subscriptions (i.e., channels I subscribed to thinking, "I should really be watching this…" but then I never actually did 😅). I also got rid of a few channels that haven't added videos in a while, although I kept some others, my boundless optimism convincing me they might be revived someday.

Key

• 👀- Instant watch
• 🤌- Online video virtuoso
• 😌- Good for sleepytime (This doesn't mean the content is bad, just that it's relaxing.)
